How does he get away with it?

After everything that's gone on. Anyone else would have been sent to a secure institution for life

He sould of been put away years ago! I dont care if he was found not guilty,I belive money can buy you anything!! including freedom!!


Hi norfolk Rob! where abouts are you from? im from norwich.

For arguments sake, get away with what exactly?

Er......... Having sex with underage boys

Rather obvious i know but it could have just been that you disliked his music.
To me it seems he gets away with it cos of all the money he has and coupled with perhaps, the courts being afraid to convict him

I actually like some of his music. Billie Jean was a classic.

On top of that the man could dance like nobody else. Did you see him in the Jackson 5 days dancing to Rockin Robin? Even then(aged about 7 I guess) he moved like a natural

I think he's a fantastic entertainer, and i love alot of his music, mostly the older stuff. I hear he was gonna be performing thriller for the first time in years at the WMA's last night. Did it happen?

No. It was a bit of a rip off aparently. He mumbled a few lines from 'we are the world' and that was that.

Not sure whether he's to blame or the promoters

Thats disappointing, because no matter what he may or may not have been up to in his private life, he's one of the best ever performers

thats a matter of opinion!!

i think his early work was good, but i do think age plays a differant here, if the first you hear of him is his action, then of couse you may not view his work with the same eyes as someone who hear his music first,

Yes it is, i spoke for myself, my opinion.

And ice could be right. If the first time a person ever finds out about the existance of the man is through the press about his court cases and alledged crimes, then it would be natural for their opinion from then on to be shaped by that.

He was good back in his hey-day, loved thriller, billy Jean, Beat it, thought moonwalker was awsome when I first saw it. However like most celebs there's a dark side.
I was in LA when they Acquitted OJ Simpson, most of the people thought he was guilty never the less he got off.
How did Jocko get away with it? simply because he and American Icon, an embodyment of the American dream or what ever you call it. Once upon a time in the eighties Micheal Jackson was a brand name as big a Pepsi or Coca Cola, I guess when you have that much money you really do delude yourself into thinking you can do anything.
But here's the question that is going to stoke the fires of this forum.

If Jacko and Gary glitter are into this kind of stuff how many other celebs out there are there determined to keep a lid on their sorded private lives. I'll start the ball rolling
David Beckham. That guy has probably been behind posh's back more time than he has scored goals.

celebrates are just people and have their faults like most of us, only if it is against the law should they be publicly outed, so to speak.

Ice, Love that pic of the japanese guys well funny

if he has nt he is wasting a god given talent.posh is a pouting dog.

Not much of a fire

We all have dark secrets, celebreties are no different. Like Ice said, so long as its not illegal, its none of our business. Sure, the press would love it if its true that Beckham has cheated but i really couldnt care less.


Totally agree

Do we all have "dark secrets"?

Jacko was a highly talented singer and dancer who lost his shit at some point. Not only is he a pedophile, but he has paid countless sums to turn himself white and he supposedly has Marilyn Monroe's brain sitting in a jar of formaldehyde in his bathroom.

Cool, keep em coming

Well, hopefully not as dark as MJ

Now I really think you guys are misunderstanding the man. Is it not enough to show ones love by dangling your baby over a balcony? What more do you need? Give the man a facial operation........ I meant break.

How many has he had already?

Its such a shame, he was attractive when he was a black man. And thats a weird sentance to ever have to say, but its true

Judging by what is publicly known about him, I can't even imagine his dark secrets.

Brings to mind that headline in the New York Post: "Wacko Jacko Is Backo."

Good point
